Well.... sites like prelaw handbook have several years worth of listings and stats on their site... http://www.prelawhandbook.com/2009_top_104_
Yeah, you can paraphrase, and there are other exceptions like education or something, but putting a scan of an entire page (and definitely more than one) on the internet without permission, there must be some problems with. Get a 2L or 3L who has taken Copyright to look this up.

I definitely need to set up an Opera scholarship based on willingness to tackle an epic mission at a moment's notice. Now off to Kinko's at 3:00 am shows that she does not stop until the challenge is complete. If Fordham wants more TLS love they should get Opera off the wait list for she would be a huge addition (and born legend) for her class.

Final edits will come over time to ensure that New Mexico should not really be Nebraska (which I am pretty certain it should be Nebraska).

Guess your right... but I doubt the rankings people will be after her... maybe she can just post a couple of scans for a few hours to get the doubters off her ass... and someone can save those pics and maybe type down the stats and post them later... Regardless, I'll check in tomorrow to see what happened. I'm off to bed...

Yeah, that's probably because OperaAttorney (an older user) is a dude.

Good call. Obviously an honest mistake on Ken's part.

1. Mandelbaum posts a list of schools he texted to himself after paging through a copy at Penn Station.
2. Ken says it looks like it might be a real list.
3. Several posters, including doyleoil and myself, note its similarity to the supposedly discredited critical badger list.
4. Arguments ensue.
5. OperaSoprano gets a cab to Penn Station and buys the book.
